Importing One Project into Another Project

Report · Sep 21, 2020

I've made a short video logo project (video, text, and sound) that I would like to insert near the beginning of other video projects in Premier Elements 2020. I've tried to import from files, copy and paste, and add from media resources. Nothing has worked. Can it be done and, if so how?

Thank you very much!

No, you can't do that in Premiere Elements. That is what you do in Premiere Pro with "sequences".

However, there is a work around. With your short video logo project, you can open it and "save as" a new video project. Then build from there.

Another work around is to out put the video log project as a video file. Then, import that as new media in the larger project.

Thank you.

In your first suggestion, do you mean to give it a new name? I tried that and it made no difference; it didn't show up as an a rescource available to media resources.

In your second suggestion, how do I do that? The Save As option didn't give me any alternative to the Premier Project file format.

Thanks again.
